Picture of Police Detective sparks debate as commenter ‘feels like committing crime’. (Image: New South Wales Police Force)A police detective has been trolled on social media by inappropriate sexist comments after her work picture was released. Many Facebook users praised the new officer for being a ‘role model’, while others were criticised for focusing on her appearance.As part of a regular series titled ‘Meet the Team Monday’, the New South Wales Police Force yesterday introduced residents of the Australian state to its new member in the Cybercrime Squad.Suzana, now a Detective Senior Constable with the State Crime Command’s online group, previously worked at the Department of Forensic Medicine based in Glebe Morgue.In a Facebook post accompanying the uploaded picture, New South Wales Police said: ‘It was here that Suzana was first exposed to more than the average office worker – but in a happy twist of fate, saw her develop an interest in policing and forensic investigations!’It was also here that she met a Sergeant working at the State Coroner’s Court next door, who gave her the support and confidence to change career paths and submit a formal application to become a police officer.’Before long, the post was met with dozens of ‘creepy’ comments, with many asking whether the Detective Senior Constable was single.One, quoted in News AU, wrote: ‘I suddenly feel like committing a crime.’Another asked Suzana to ‘take me in for interrogation, please’.Other inappropriate comments included: ‘I’m not sure what she’s selling but I’ll take two’ and ‘arrest me’.READ MORE: Ukraine – Putin dealt hammer blow as Donetsk ‘littered with bodies Suzana.

Jesus, this isn’t an ad for Playboy.’Your ‘compliment’ has nothing to do with this post, which is about her career success.’DON’T MISS: Zelensky’s call for no fly zone rejected [OPINION] Putin’s army from ‘mysteriously weak’ to ‘brutal’ [REVEAL] People sensationally blame Brexit for Russia’s chilling invasion [REPORT]Another added: ‘Yikes. You’re creepy.’One user also added: ‘I love how accomplished this woman is, and then all the men making comments about her looks.’Most – if not all – of the inappropriate comments appear now to have been removed.Others were, however, very complimentary about her success.One user wrote: ‘Congratulations on your role! Pleased to see resources going to this! So many unaccountable internet/cyber scams, creepy peeps abusing privacy!’Others praised Suzana as a ‘role model’ and encouraged her to ‘go get ’em’.
